I believe it is convergent evolution
Answer:
Conducting an experiment.
Answer:
Explanation:
The sickle cell allele is recessive. Hence, in order for any child of the couple to have sickle cell anemia, such a child will have to inherit an affected allele each from the two parents. This means that both the father and the mother must have affected alleles in their genotypes. In other words, two sickle cell alleles are required for the abnormality to manifest.
Let us assume that the sickle cell allele is represented by S and the normal allele is represented by A.
Now, it is established that the mother has sickle cell anemia, her genotype would be SS. The father does not have sickle cell, his genotype can either be AA or AS.
Assuming the genotype of the father is AA:
SS x AA
AS AS AS AS
<em>All the children would be normal in this case.</em>
Assuming that the genotype of the father is AS
SS x AS
AS SS AS SS
<em>50% of the children would have sickle cell while the remaining 50% would be normal.</em>
<u>Therefore, in order to produce children with sickle cell, the father has to be AS, otherwise, he has to be AA.</u>

Chronic backache
<span>The nurse should provide preventive measures for chronic backache as a consequence of lordosis when caring for this client. Chloasma is characterized by darkened areas on the face, particularly over the nose and cheeks. It is also known as the mark of pregnancy. Chloasma is not caused by lordosis. Diastasis occurs as the pregnancy progresses when the rectus muscle stretches to the point that it separates. It is not caused by lordosis. Edema in lower extremities occurs due to an impeded venous return caused by pressure of growing fetus on pelvic and femoral areas. It is not caused by lordosis.</span>
The correct answer is: B) Different traits are inherited separately.
Mendel’s conclusions as a result of his experiments with dihybrid crosses are known as Mendel’s laws.
• Mendel’s law of Segregation: During the gametes formation (meiosis), alleles are separated so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene
• Mendel’s law of Independent Assortment: The segregation of alleles of one gene is independent to that of any other gene
Mendel also defined the Principle of Dominance: Recessive alleles will be masked by dominant alleles when are together in heterozygous genotype.
